(MENAFN- Gulf Times) The Social and Sport Contribution Fund (DAAM) has signed a funding agreement with the Ministry of Social Development and Family to support the Social Development Center "NAMA", which operates under the Qatar Foundation for Social Work. Through this partnership, DAAM will contribute to the "National Social Entrepreneurship Award" program-supporting it for the first time in its second edition.
The initiative seeks to strengthen the culture of social entrepreneurship in Qatar and empower youth and broader community members to develop sustainable solutions for local social challenges.
Under the agreement, DAAM will provide dedicated financial backing for the Award's key initiatives, implemented by the Social Development Center "NAMA" across three categories: Best Existing Social Enterprise Project, Best Social Enterprise Project Idea, and a newly introduced category for 2025-Best School Social Enterprise Project. This new school-focused track targets secondary-level students, recognizing their potential as emerging changemakers and encouraging them to present community-oriented ideas and initiatives that drive measurable positive impact within a supportive, competitive framework.
The winners will be announced and honored on the sidelines of the Social Entrepreneurship Forum in early December 2025.
Since its inception in 2010, DAAM has played a pivotal role in supporting a broad spectrum of social, sporting, and cultural projects. Contributions from Qatar Stock Exchange-listed companies are DAAM's primary financial resource, making these organizations key partners in driving sustainable community development.
